| Abstract | Regulated exocytosis triggered by the photolysis of a caged Ca2+ compound, DM-nitrophen, was investigated by patch-clamp capacitance measurements in two clones of PC12, the first wild-type and the second (PC12-27) defective of both types of classical secretory vesicles together with the neuronal-type receptors for the attachment proteins of the N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive fusion protein, the so called SNAREs. Moreover, the electrophysiological data were correlated with the ultrastructure of resting quick-frozen–freeze-dried cells of the two clones. Wild-type PC12 exhibited two-component capacitance responses, time constants of 30–100 ms and >10 s, that previous studies had suggested to reflect primarily the fusion of the small and large secretory vesicles, each contributing cell surface increases of ≈10%. Both of these components were largely and specifically inhibited whether cells previously were microinjected with tetanus toxin light chain. In the defective clone, large responses also were recorded (≈19% surface expansion; time constant, ≈1 s) that, in contrast to those of the wild-type, were entirely resistant to the toxin. Although secretory organelles, i.e., large vesicles and also profiles of small vesicles, were abundant at the cell periphery and often docked to the plasmalemma of resting wild-type PC12, in the defective clone, no superficial accumulation of vesicles was observed. Our coordinate structural and functional results have revealed diversities between the two classical forms of regulated secretion in wild-type PC12 and have provided evidence of a toxin-insensitive form of Ca2+-induced exocytosis, prominent in the defective clone, that may play an important role(s) in cellular physiology. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
